Manhattan as seen from the top of the World Trade Center. | Mike, Gina, and Susie with a lotta bull. |
A great day in the Big Apple -- we have breakfast in a typical little Greek deli, then venture out toward the Statue of Liberty. It's crowded, so we decide against taking the boat ride out to Ellis Island and instead gaze at the statue from afar. Then we go to the top of the World Trade Center (107 floors) and enjoy the view of New York on a nice clear day.
Afterwards, it's off to FAO Schwartz opposite Central Park where we find some fake Tameguchis, the virtual babies and puppies kids are playing with all over, if they can get them! We luck into 3.
We see a performance of "Magic on Broadway," a great magic show by Joseph Gabriel, a very talented illusionist. Then we pack in a Cajun dinner at Louisiana, a little place in Greenwich Village which has jazz groups performing nightly. A quick stop in Times Square to admire the lights and it's time to catch a little sleep before the next flight...
